Question 460130: Find the equation of the line containing the point and perpendicular to the given line. (0,–7); 4x + 3 = y please show work Answer by richard1234(7193) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The slope of the given line is 4 (rewrite as y = 4x+3, slope is 4). A line that runs through (0,-7) obviously has a y-intercept of -7, so we can write the equation in slope-intercept form.
